Thursday, July 22, 2021
Greetings,
I am speaking to you this evening from the traditional territories of the Quay Quayt and Kwikwetlem First Nations in a place otherwise known as New Westminster, BC.
May 18 - June 2, 2021 for Workers Rising Everywhere, the 4th training in the Organizing for Power series led by Jane McAlevey and hosted by the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung, this time featuring new trainers and inspiring stories from across the world.
A Navy training document asks, “Anarchists, socialists and neo-nazis represent which terrorist ideological category?”
A NAVY COUNTERTERRORISM training document obtained exclusively by The Intercept appears to conflate socialists with terrorists and lists the left-wing ideology alongside “neo-nazis.”
A section of the training document subtitled “Study Questions” includes the following: “Anarchists, socialists and neo-nazis represent which terrorist ideological category?”
In a capitalist society, there is always a good explanation for your poverty, your meaningless job (if you have a job), your difficulties and your general unhappiness. You are to blame. It is your failure. After all, look at other people who do succeed. If only you had worked a little harder, studied a little more, made those sacrifices.
